Breast Cancer Stem Cells: A Clinician's View

Methods Mol Biol. 2022:2471:345-349. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-2193-6_20.

Abstract

Much has been revealed about breast cancer stem cells, their properties, and behavior and yet, a gap remains between the ever expanding knowledge and its effective clinical applications. The previous chapters have illustrated the extraordinary wealth of methodologies presently used to continue improving our understanding of breast cancer stem cells. The hope is that soon all this knowledge will translate into applicable improvements in the clinic.
